[QUOTE="BSK, post: 364639, member: 17"] The drought occurred too late to affect antler growth much. I haven't seen what I would consider a decline. Now the drought is definitely stressing the deer and increasing the severity of the HD outbreak. The late freeze destroyed the mast crop, and the drought has reduced the amount of normal winter foods that will be avaiable. The drought is also keeping hunters from planting plots. Yes, the deer will move a lot to find food this fall, making the hunting better, but we will pay for all this next year with very poor health in spring, poor antler development and low fawn production.
